The petrology, geochemistry, and geochronology of hotspot seamounts in the North Pacific and arc/backarc volcanism on the northern Antarctic Peninsula

Creator:: Keller, Randall A.
Abstract:: Volcanic rocks from hotspots and island arcs/backarcs typically have enriched trace element and isotopic compositions that contain a contribution from subducted oceanic crust. Isotopic and trace element data suggest that the enriched components in hotspot volcanism are ancient subducted sediment and crust, and the enriched components in arc/backarc volcanism are...

Volatiles and Geochemical Fingerprinting of Plagioclase-Hosted Melt Inclusions from Mid-Ocean Ridge Lavas: Determination of Depth of Crystallization and Melt Composition in the Lower Crust

Creator:: Kotash, Alisa K.
Abstract:: The global mid-ocean ridge system is the largest magmatic system encompassing over 75% of the Earth’s total volcanism. As magmas ascend through the vertically variable oceanic crust, melts begin to crystallize and diversify and subsequently erupt at the surface. The interpretation of these erupted products observed on the seafloor requires...

Extending the clinical applications of commercially available optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dosimeters

Creator:: Keller, James R.
Abstract:: We present the results of our experiments designed to extend the clinical applications of commercially available Optically Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) Dosimeters. Our initial experiments demonstrate the linear response of the OSL dosimeters for doses under 200 cGy and the non-linear response of the device after 200 cGy. Our experiments show...

Spatial heterogeneity, meta-analysis and spatial dependence : three essays on environmental valuation and spatial land management decisions

Creator:: Bu, Meidan
Abstract:: This dissertation consists of three essays that collectively address the importance of accounting for spatial heterogeneity and spatial dependence of environmental assets and natural resources in policy making. The first essay examines the value of different wetland ecosystem services using an expanded meta-dataset of valuation studies in North America. The...

Voxel based indirect illumination using spherical harmonics

Creator:: Rauwendaal, Randall
Abstract:: Realistic (ideally photorealistic) real-time rendering has remained an elusive goal in computer graphics. While photorealistic rendering has certainly been achieved at the expense of tremendous computational resources and corresponding rendering times; real-time rendering typically must accept a great number of compromises to achieve adequate performance, such as aliasing artifacts, the...

Effect of Holland personality type similarity and family ideology on marital satisfaction among dual-career spouses

Creator:: Gennette, Michael M.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to determine if Holland vocational personality type similarity and/or traditional/ egalitarian family ideology affected marital satisfaction among dual-career spouses. The population for this study was Oregon State University graduate students and faculty, married to spouses who had career aspirations outside the home. Holland personality...

Structure-property relationships in oxides containing select platinum group metals

Creator:: Gatimu, Alvin J.
Abstract:: Oxide materials exhibit a wide variety of structures and properties. In particular, transition metal oxides tend to be highly stable while exhibiting a wide range of properties that can be used for numerous applications. This work focuses on investigating how the structures’ of 4d and 5d transition metal oxides influences...
